External beam boost versus interstitial high-dose-rate brachytherapy boost in the adjuvant radiotherapy following breast-conserving therapy in early-stage breast cancer: a dosimetric comparison
PURPOSE This study aims to compare the dosimetric data of local tumor's bed dose escalation (boost) with photon beams (external beam radiation therapy - EBRT) versus high-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy (HDR-BT) after breast-conserving treatment in women with early-stage breast cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed the treatment planning data of 136 irradiated patients, treated betwee...
متن کاملProstate cancer boost using high-dose-rate brachytherapy: early toxicity analysis of 3 different fractionation schemes
PURPOSE To analyse early toxicity of high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDRB) boost for prostate cancer using 3 fractionation schemes. MATERIAL AND METHODS From February 2009 to May 2012, after the first course of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT 46 Gy/23 f), 124 patients underwent HDRB boost for low (7%), intermediate (19%), and high-risk (73%) prostate cancers. From February to December 200...
متن کاملA study of high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy boost for curative treatment of uterine cervical cancer
PURPOSE This study assessed the trial of boost intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) for the patients of uterine cervical cancer with residual malignant cells detected at the final stage of ICBT. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of 75 patients with cervical cancer treated radically with external beam radiotherapy and high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy between August ...
متن کاملPrimary radiotherapy with endobronchial high-dose-rate brachytherapy boost for inoperable lung cancer: long-term results.
BACKGROUND To retrospectively evaluate the outcome of patients with inoperable non-small-cell lung cancer treated with primary external beam radiotherapy combined with high-dose-rate endobronchial brachytherapy boost. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1988 and 2005, 35 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (stage I-III) ineligible for surgical resection and/or chemotherapy, were primarily treat...
متن کاملObstructive urination problems after high-dose-rate brachytherapy boost treatment for prostate cancer are avoidable
BACKGROUND Aiming at improving treatment individualization in patients with prostate cancer treated with combination of external beam radiotherapy and high-dose-rate brachytherapy to boost the dose to prostate (HDRB-B), the objective was to evaluate factors that have potential impact on obstructive urination problems (OUP) after HDRB-B. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the follow-up study 88 patients ...
